The same Mary a thousand times, 
back then on working lines 
and I'll face the wall and the day again. 
See if she won't buy some wine, 
we'll take two to the restaurant 
fight it out with our wives in the basement and, 
I pulled the tears out of that face, 
head long in the right place 
I want to join in with the right race 

The crosses, and they won't mind I've been a thousand times, 
the crosses and they won't mind I've been a thousand, 
I'd want for anything, 
I'd want for anything 

Theres' bags of bones out on the street, 
under my feet we're talking 
friends of, people I knew. 
Won't you see if her head turns when we scream, 
my name from the window, 
from the pillow well they're sending the order through. 
Don't you know that things ain't what they seem, 
the man that flies really walks to work with me 
I know I caught him on the phone 

The crosses, and they won't mind I've been a thousand times, 
the crosses and they won't mind I've been a thousand people and, 
the crosses, and they won't mind I've been a thousand times, 
the crosses and they won't mind I've been a thousand, 
I'd want for anything, 
I'd want for anything
